I did not notice it but it has been quite a while since I entered the password for using sudo priviledges.
Here is my /etc/sudoers
file:
#
# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
#
# Please consider adding local content in /etc/sudoers.d/ instead of
# directly modifying this file.
#
# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.

Defaults env_reset
Defaults mail_badpass
Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

# Allow members of group sudo to execute any command
%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

%jupiter ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/lib/jupiter/scripts/bluetooth, /usr/lib/jupiter/scripts/camera, /usr/lib/jupiter/scripts/cpu-control, /usr/lib/jupiter/scripts/resolutions, /usr/lib/jupiter/scripts/rotate, /usr/lib/jupiter/scripts/touchpad, /usr/lib/jupiter/scripts/vga-out, /usr/lib/jupiter/scripts/wifi
This worries me because any script can now run without me having to enter the password.
I have seen the following questions, but they seem unrelated to this post:
How do I make sudo
always prompt me for a password(expept for the timeout duration given in /etc/sudoers
file?
P.S.: I have some aliases set in my .bash_aliases
that have commands using sudo, but I hope that is unrelated to the password prompt, or is it?
